There could hardly be greater
mistake than that of supposing that
Christian gains influence over those
who are not Christians, by laxity
rather than by strictness, in any
matter of questionable or debatable
propriety. The worlds standard for
Christians is higher than Christians
standard for Christians. A Christian
is not so likely as man of the world
to Judge a Christian severely because
of his Indulgence in theatre-going, or
card-playing, or dancing. or wine
drinking, or tobacco-using. Apart
from the question whether these
things are in themselves right or
wrong, it is fact that men OF the
world who practice them have a
higher respect for Christian who alb
lures them, than for Christian who
dulges in them. Two Christian gen.
tlemen were sitting with gentleman
who was not a protested Christian.
The latter and one of the former were
smoking, and when a cigar was
proffered to and was declined by the
third, the Christian smoker expressed
regret, that his companion did 'i;tit
smoke. "And honor him the INDIE
for that" was the instant response Of
the man of the world" His standard
is clearly higher than ours" An army
chaplain thought to bring himself on
better terms with his .fellow-oficers
by sharing simple game of whist
with them. That course SO lost him
the respect of officers and men who
were not Christians. that his useful
ness as a chaplain was at an end On
an ocean steamer, a clergyman and
his youngcompanion were Z the only
total-abstainers at their cabin table.
They were repeatedly urged to drink
for their own good and they We're
spoken fas tnwisel ysstfiet in their
abstinence. But the very men who
thus criticised them spoke with a con-
temptuous sheer of the course, in this
line, of another clergyman at an ad-
joining table, who was supposed to
take a glass of wine socially-al-
though he really did not do so. A
young girl who had been brought up
to dance and to go the theatre, and
whose father seemed to have little
interest in religious matters, con-
nected herself with the church. WISH
ing not to seem gloomy Christian,
she continued in her old habits of
social life. Yet her father told a
clergyman friend that he should have
higher regard for his daughters re-
ligion, if it kept her rom dancing
and theatre-goimg. And these Incl
| dents are but illustrative of the great
sweep of popular feeling concerning
personal habits of self-denia1 and con-
straintas fruit of the Christian life.
Whatever may be said in favor of
these laxer social custums, it Will
lhave to be admitted that men of the
world have lower estimate of the
Christian standard which tolerates
| them.-Sunday School Times.

The best argument found IN
Maine for prohibition was 10y an
editor of paper in Portland, who
was for political reasons, opposed 10,
it, had a conversation with him,
which ran something like this: -
"Where were you born?f
SIN a village about sixty miles
from Bangor.
do you remember the condition of
things in your village prior to pro-
hibition9''
"Distinctly. There was vast
amonnt of drunkenness, and conse-
quent disorder and poverty
"What was the effect of prohibi-
tion?"
at shut up all the rum shops, and
practically banished liquor from the
village. 1t became one of the most
quiet and prosperous places on the
| globe"
How long did You live in the vii
lage after prohibition?
ELEVEN years, or until was twen-
ty-one years OF age"
"Then?' ....,-
"Then l went to Ban sAr."
"Do you drink now?" "
Il have never tasteI Il drop "f l;qu-
or in my life."
"Why?'
Cup to the age of twenty-one l
never saw it, and after that did not
care to. take on the habit"
That is all there is in it. Ii the
boys of the country are not exposed
to the infernalism, the men are very
sure not to be. This man and his
schoolmates were saved from rum by
the fact that they could not get it un-
til they were old enough to know bet
ter. Few men are drunkards WHO
know not the poison till after they are
twenty-onr. II is the youth that the

snapped the revolver, a 80 caliber,
but the cartridge failed to explode,
and supposing it not loaded handed
it to his neighbor friend and asked
him to reload it. Hardly had it
left his hand when the cartridge ex-
plodett, the ball taking effect in the
left side Of his face. He at once
came to Webster COR medical aid,
but DR.. Peabody being absent had
nothing done until his return, about
two o'clock. The accident having
occurred at eight in the morning.
by the time the DIR. began opera
lions it was so hsdly swollen that it
was hard to handle. The doctor
removed several spiculae of bone.
but the most careful probing failed
to ind the ball. Mr.. Ford is doing
nicely and will soon recover.

We n, iioe this assertion in . local pa
per: 'idsine has tried prohibition for
thirty years and there is as much drunS-
enness, as much crime in that state as in
any state in the union"
This is like all saloon statements, def
cient in fact.
Take the crime first-don't you know
that Maine has. of al. the STATES the
smallest proportion of crimes7 In 1850,
the official statistics show that Maine
had only n convict to every 5000 of her
people, or a total of l9l conyicts in her
states prison. Even Massachusetts has
one convict for every 22OO, and a total of
757 in the states prison.
New York has one convict to every
400 people. or 1888 criminals. Califor-
mia has y eonyiet TO every 600 people.
What becomes of the rash assertion
that Maine has proportlonately as much
crime as any other state? The fact is, it
has the lowest per cent of criminal pop
ulation of any state in the union, and
her per cent of crime has been steadily
decreasing for many yesrs-a statement
that can not lie made Of any but those
states where prohibition has gone into
operation,
Now IS TO drunkenness; the calm sta
tement was, that drunkenness was as
great in Maine as in any other state,R-
Wonder what put it into this writer's
head to associate drink with crime.
Look 81 the facts again. it is liquor
that makes men dlEEk. If they drink
it they either buy or make it. If they
do either they pay revenue
The Commissioner of internal revenue
says there isn't q dis.illery in that state.
The beer brewers congress says that
Maine Is no longer 3 beer producing
state" The DRUM enness goes where the
liquor goes. Maine doesn't get her pro-
portion Of liquor by any means. She
has $4,000 peoele, and only pays one
eleventh as muck rarenue as Minnesota
with only 10000 population. The rev
enue received denotes infallibly the
amount of liquor consumed-and conse-
quenily of drunkenness. The fact is,
that while the average per capita Of rev.
enue for all the people of the United
States is about ~ so, il is less than three
cents per capita in Mainel
As to the actual statistics OF drunken,
ness, Sec. Bond, OF Maine, has shown
that in 1880. when the State had only
tro:thirds OF its present population, n
out Of As persons were in the habit Of
getting beastly drunk. Now the most
careful investigators are confident that
not n out Of 300 in the population lisa
drupkardl In 1880 the anniial deaths
from delirum trsnlens were 200l Now
they do not reach o5i No other stale
